Foreign Hands are a metalcore band from Wilmington, Delaware, formed in 2009. The band consists of lead vocalist Tyler Norris, lead guitarist and clean vocalist Jack Beatson, rhythm guitarist and backing vocalist Gill Gonzalez, bassist Chuck Minix, and drummer Tyler Washington.
The band released their first album No Funeral For The Spirit in 2016[1] before releasing their Fall EP on December 1, 2017.[2] The year after, in 2018, they released a summer promotional tape[3] (which was remastered in 2021 with an additional third track), before releasing their split EP with Cast in Blood titled Lapsed Requiems in 2019[4]. On February 18 in 2022, they released their EP Bleed the Dream through DAZE Records.[5] Later that same year, they signed with SharpTone Records and released their fourth EP, Lucid Noise on October 19. The band released their second studio album, What's Left Unsaid, on June 21, 2024.[6]
Tyler Norris is also in the Washington D.C.-based metalcore outfit Wristmeetrazor.[7]
Musical style
[edit]The band's heavy yet melodic sound is noted to emulate that of metalcore bands from the late 1990s and early 2000s, with influences coming from such as Poison the Well, Hopesfall, Misery Signals, and 7 Angels 7 Plagues.[8]
